Australian Formula 4 calendar confirmed

By Thomas Miles

Date posted: 18 November 2024

The Australian Formula 4 Championship will return in 2025 and there will be more racing thanks to an expanded calendar.

After five years away, the Australian Formula 4 Championship returned this year with AGI Sport’s James Piszcyk dominating.

The inaugural season was held over four rounds at The Bend, Sydney Motorsport Park and Malaysia’s famous Sepang Circuit.

But the follow up in 2025 will be even bigger, taking place over five rounds that are all in Australia.

The exact dates are yet to be confirmed, but it will start in March at Sydney Motorsport Park.

A doubleheader at The Bend Motorsport Park then follows with the first trip in May before round 3 in July.

For the first time in its current guise, F4 will go racing around the sweeping seaside venue Phillip Island in August.

The chequered flag will then wave where it all began, at SMP in September.

The calendar is not the only change that is coming in 2025.

For the first time both Generation 2 Tatuus and Generation 1 Mygale Formula 4 cars will be permitted to go racing side by side.

Drivers can be as young as 14 to jump behind the wheel of the  Generation 1 Mygale Formula 4 car, while the minimum ago for the Generation 2 Tatuus is 15.

Australian Formula 4 Gen 1 Masters Cup and Australian Formula 4 Gen 2 Masters Cup cars can also be raced with a minimum age of 18.

The cars will also be split into separate classes.

With the championship aimed at being a development category and proving a pathway to open wheel racing, the overall Australian F4 title is only ligible for drivers in Generation 2 cars only.

Masters Cups will be awarded amongst Gen 1 and Gen 2 runners aged 18 and over, while the Junior Cup will be limited to drivers aged 14–17 in Gen 1 cars only.

The 2025 Australian Formula 4 Championship will also be the first promoted by AGI Sport after this year’s was run by Top Speed.

Whilst AGI Sport will continue being a team having won the title last year, Motorsport Australia is still delegated with the responsibility of ensuring sporting and technical regulations are adhered to by the competitors.

Interested participants are encouraged to contact AGI Sport.
